the start chains can rattle at low rpm's too. they have a pretty basic tensioner system. Irlam is just down the road from me too. All part of the fun though

miami has a vice too, I seen it on the telly

yea, but its rude to "point"

Ben. I got an FZ600 which is basically an xj with 32mm carbs

use the vote button at the top tommy!

you can get pyramid taper bearings for £20, not worth saving a few pounds as the tapers offer a better riding experience IMHO they are 1/4" 19 pieces top and bottom (not metric sized)

I use the tube in London, relevant only to me and foreigners

you should be in YOC tee at least

I had access all areas and got to meet GM mechanic although GM wasn't there as he was preparing for the NW200 and TT. its the old TAS Susuki team with Tyco added on. My Mate works for Tyco and managed to get a couple of tickets/passes even wearing my Thundersprint competitor Tee too, although no dolly birds were suckered in by the gear

finally got a few pictures off Mike; Guy Martin's bike (got told off for twiddling his settings, oops) and then I get Josh Brookes 3rd place cup, suits me fine. met Nial McKenzie too there and then a lovely poached salmon meal with NewYork cheese cake mmmm

thanks, (BTW that means good in American speak)

looks amazing, especially if you get the weather

only 7 miles! they were queuing from the M56 to Oulton Park. All very courteous though

I went to Oulton Park for the BSB, got to pose on Guy Martin's bike with Josh brookes 3rd place cup (pikkies to follow when Mike gets his finger out and sends them)

this is very slow Mo of the internal combustion engine in use. amazingly you can see the fuel air mist entering , flame front and a whiff of exhaust http://www.wimp.com/engineworks/

I was at Oulton Park Tommy!

....no its just the way he walks

oulton park for me tommy, sun tan lotion on I believe Ponderosa cafe or Southport carousel?

he's gone unusually quiet count me in too

bloody early Mike!

Carl, you just reminded me, if you ever wanted to upgrade the XS to H4 halogen headlamp, the superdream one works a dream (sic!)

can you not transfer the rubber boot over? keep it in boiling water and it should be pliable enough to ease it over any obstacles EDIT that looks like a COP (coil in cap) so $70 is why it costs that much

flick the ignition switch back and forth, spraying inside the switches. prob got corrosion inside the bodies preventing connections. seen quite a few bikes with white corrosion marks on them this year, I think because last year was a wet one, the bikes suffered a bit over winter. I know I have to break out the big guns to shift it! (and that's with a heater under the bike)
